Constraint-Based Local Search for the Automatic Generation of Architectural Tests
Abstract. This paper considers the automatic generation of architectural tests (ATGP), a fundamental problem in processor validation. ATGPs are complex conditional constraint satis...

Bad and Good Ways of Post-processing Biased Physical Random Numbers
Algorithmic post-processing is used to overcome statistical deficiencies of physical random number generators. We show that the quasigroup based approach for post-processing rando...

Cryptanalytic Attacks on Pseudorandom Number Generators
In this paper we discuss PRNGs: the mechanisms used by real-world secure systems to generate cryptographic keys, initialization vectors, "random" nonces, and other values...
